Faneca move not surprise

The Jets released guard Alan Faneca, perhaps for financial reasons. They wanted him to take a paycut. The drafting of Vlad Ducasse probably had nothing to do with Faneca going. The kid has never played guard before. He will need time to learn the position. Faneca's replacement is second-year guard Matt Slauson. So I don't think Faneca's release had anything to do with Ducasse.
